<p>OMG!!! I GOT IN!
i just got home and looked in the mail, and i saw the package! at first i thought it was a rejection because it was thin, but I GOT in!!
i looked here the other day and saw that someone from Florida got in, so i thought i didn’t get in because i live in Georgia, so i would say to keep hope alive! =]</p>
<p>@College-goer im from GA too! what part of GA are you from?</p>
<p>i got the rejection letter today. Well, I HAVE expecting it all weekend. It went something like this.</p>
<p>Nilly,
The Mites program actively seeks out students who demonstrate bright promise of ability and interest in science, engineering and technology. As the demand for MITES grows, the selection process becomes increasingly competitive. This year the selection committee has completed the effort of carefully reviewing over 1200 applications to this year’s summer session. </p>
<p>We believe you are a highly talented student who shows great promise in science and engineering.
(apply to our other programs)</p>
<p>Visit our website</p>
<p>thanks for applying.</p>
<p>Last three sentences were paraphrased. It makes me sad just typing it. :(</p>
<p>wow i can’t believe i got accepted =D !!!
I received my envelope today and my mother called me while I was in school to tell me that I got in ( I screamed when I heard the news lol).Cannot wait for this summer and,also, I am from Puerto Rico so the island will be represented @ MITES =D !!</p>
<p>Rejected. Oh well, I expected this. Chinese people don’t have a chance at such programs.</p>
<p>My mailman just came. No mail except for junk mail. Ah well. Congrats to emmanuel and kere. =)</p>
<p>At least the rejection letter sounds nice. Plus, it was really competitive so I think we should all be happy that we even tried. I’m expecting a rejection as well lol</p>
<p>ughh. I have to wait until my mom gets home at around 7 tonight.</p>
<p>And with having school out today, the wait has been tragic :(</p>
<p>Also, congrats to those who have been accepted today! I hope to join you all (:</p>
<p>For those who got accepted , i created a facebook group so that we can at least get familiar with each other before we get to MITES. i know last year’s group started a group prior to the program, so i thought, “why not?” =]</p>

<p>I got WAITLISTED…:|. Hah, yay now I get to wait 1 more month! 
(sarcasm). But… I’m not complaining, I still have a chance. Does anyone know how many waitlistees were accepted last year?</p>
<p>@MIT15
yay, you still have a chance! =)
I have no clue how many waitlistees are accepted each year.</p>
<p>Btw, did you get a letter in the mail from them saying you were waitlisted?</p>
<p>haha i dont facebook much but i guess i will for MITES!</p>
<p>@kere: I am from gwinnett. You?!!</p>
<p>@College-goer: i live in fayette county, it’s about an hour south of gwinnett.</p>
<p>ATTENTION EVERYONE, please? If you are NOT planning on attending MITES, can you please please please call them or tell them asap? I am waitlisted and would greatly appreciate it!! 
…thanks! lol.</p>
<p>@hpaero1, thanks! I know, I was really in shock. I still have a chance! =) It would be such an amazing experience, but I don’t find out until May. :|. Good Luck to you!! I hope you get in!! …or at least be waitlist buddies with me!! haha.</p>
<p>Rejected, as expected. Asian + junk essays make for an unattractive candidate.
Congrats to all yall who got accepted! Everyone here is truly amazing.</p>
<p>@MIT15
Haha thanks, but I know I won’t get in. My grades for the semester were pretty bad anyways and my essays were decent, but not as good as I wanted them to be. Oh well.
Now I’m just hoping for a waitlist lol
I hope you get off the waitlist and get accepted! =D</p>
<p>I didn’t get anything in the mail, I live in FL?</p>
<p>@hpaero1, me too! haha, but I’m actually suprised I got waitlisted. My essays and stats weren’t the greatest, but I really tried my best. It kind of sucks though, because I finally thought I’d be relieved and have a final decision. Now I’m going to be worrying about it for another month… But all in all, I’m still really grateful! It is such an amazing program and tremendous learning experience!</p>
<p>Aww, I wish I could join the facebook group. Maybe in a month! :)</p>
<p>Guys i dont know what to do…We just moved and i think my notification was sent to my old address.The suspense is killing me.What do i do???</p>
<p>@akapoben, Definitely call MITES admissions in the morning. Tell them your situation and maybe they would be able to tell you over the phone. Good Luck!</p>
<p>I still haven’t gotten anything… prolly means I was rejected. 
again, to every1 who was accepted, what were your stats??</p>
